Karan Johar has no regrets making 'Student of the Year'

Nov 25, 2014 NR



It may not have impressed film critics, but Karan Johar says he has never been sorry for making 'Student of the Year'.


"Brainlessness" and "a lie from beginning to end" are some of the words used by critics to describe Karan Johar's 2012 directorial "Student of the Year". But the director claims the movie was made to attract teenage audience.


"I felt like teenagers didn't know my work. So, I made 'Student of the Year'. I wanted to make a film with good looking people, songs and glamour. I had to make cycling and swimming look good. I don't claim to be the ambassador of reality. I had fun doing 'Student...'", said Karan Johar, who made his directorial debut with college-based film "Kuch Kuch Hota Hai" in 1998.


"I won't regret making it. I had the best time with these three kids (actors). I didn't want them to be perfect. Rawness has its own appeal. The film is their weakest performance and I feel proud when people tell me that they were better in other films", he said during a session titled "An afternoon at Film Bazaar with Rajeev Masand" on the final day of Film Bazaar at Panaji on Monday.
